You joined Wikipedia a month ago, and you're already changing the names of famous people?

I have 10,000+ edits in English Wikipedia, and a couple of hundred in other languages. I don't recall ever changing the name of a famous person. Certainly not without prior discussion. Where is the discussion on this topic? Cammarano's discussion page is blank. You would expect to see a few months' worth of debate going on there, prior to a change of this magnitude.

Replaceable fair use Image:Martina Arroyo.jpg

Replaceable fair use
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Martina Arroyo.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. (ESkog)(Talk) 12:44, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Doktor Faust: Performance History

Well, you certainly made up for the lack of a footnote earlier. Great job! --Robert.Allen (talk) 10:41, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Move Henze

Could you explain the rationale of moving Hans Werner Henze to Hans Henze? The composer is only known under the former name, and all other language Wikipedias list him as such. I strongly suggest you revert that page move and your related edit. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 07:28, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Additional sources for Polly Lauder Tunney

Hello, I have tagged Polly Lauder Tunney twice for more sources to ascertain notability, as everything I can find relates to her husband, or family, except her obituary. Being rich, related to notable people, a philanthopist, etc, does not in itself make someone notable. I never recommended it for a speedy deletion as I felt there was potential, however independant secondary sources are required for that assertion. The reason I asked for sources other than an obituary, is they are not really considered independant, as they are usually written by family and paid to be placed in the newspapers. I do not believe that newspapers verify facts in obituaries, either. At lease one more source, in conjunction with the obituary, would help. Good sources would be links to newspaper or magazine articles, books, etc. The key is independant coverage. Please see:

If there is no independant coverage, the question then gets raised that this article might be better merged with that of her husband. Regards,Turgan Talk 13:03, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Salvadore [sic] Cammarano

Hi, You just edited my List of films based on war books page.

He's been Salvatore for all my decades of opera listening.

Why isn't this just a misprint in Grove?

I bet I can check the Penguin Guide or any other source and find Salvatore.

Salvatore Cammarano

Verdi's official site in Italy thinks he's Salvatore.
